Worms, An Update

1999–2004July 30, 2001Macs Only!Software

While it does not directly affect Macs running the Mac OS, SirCam can be resent by Macs to PCs and it can infect Virtual PC running on a Mac. The Code Red worm that has infected over 350,000 internet servers is a harbinger of the future for worms that may destroy parts of the internet.
